Default IR photos from my Yorkshireman tug

Hi

First photos ever made here are a few pics from my Yorkshireman tug after 1 hours sailing at different speeds


Should be possible to see the shape of the hull


Water is 15°C


Hottest component is the mikroprocessor on the sound module.....next to the sound module is a 7 ch switch. 27°C is still a very low temperature


Here is a photo from the 4 Conrad 60 A ESC. The two ESC is used for the main motors who also has a temp about 52°C. Everything should be OK as long as the temp is below 80°C


Closeup photos on the hottest ESC


One main motor in the boat. Nice hot, but still ok


2nd motor hidden behind some cold wires


The Yorkshireman with all lights turned on


Seen from an other angle


If weather has been colder the contrast between cold and warm would habe been stronger, but still possible to see the 3 bulps in the mast

BR,
Tom

The first 2 look like they'd be straight out of a bomb sight or something

The wonders of an infrared camera. You ought to post a regular picture next to the IR picture to give us a better idea what we are seeing.
